Muzzleloader Hangfire on Video

[rsimms]

My friend Tony Sanders suffers a short "hangfire" while sighting in a muzzleloader Sunday.

This is a good example of why you always keep your muzzle pointed downrange if you ever "snap a cap" while shooting a muzzleloader. Delayed firing really isn't all that unusual. (FYI, video via "unmanned" GoPro. I was NOT standing in front of Tony. ?#?practicegunsafety?)

Reminds me of the delay that seems longer than it actually is when firing a flintlock. Good video!

Been there...Newbies needs to see this!

you should try shooting one that breaks down like a single shot shot gun and have it break down when it goes off that is fun

I spent a lot of time on firing ranges in the Air Force as a competive shooter...one of the best training videos and the luckiest man on earth: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FjDu5zwa4rM
